He's an ideas man 💡🙌 Do you agree with rogerfederer and think the ATP and WTA should merge ⁉️ 👉 Tennis ATP WTA

The professional era in tennis started in 1968, and the ATP was founded in 1972, running the men’s game since. The women’s WTA began a year later. The idea, not new, but spotlighted by Federer: combine the two into a single body.

King agreed, noting that the suspension of the tours until at least mid-July because of the coronavirus pandemic might offer an opportunity to study restructuring tennis.“I just think this would be so huge for our sport. I’m just so happy Roger said something.” As with plenty of other industries, tennis has been hit hard by the recent economic downturn because of a loss of income from things like ticket sales and media rights.

“Recent co-operation between governing bodies has only strengthened my belief that a unified sport is the surest way to maximise our potential and to deliver an optimal experience for fans on-site, on television and online. To that end, I welcome the views of our players.”
